Oshkosh receives $476 million contract for FMTV A2 variant vehicles

OSHKOSH, Wis. Officials at the U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) Life Cycle Management Command (LCMC) selected Oshkosh Defense, LLC, an Oshkosh Corp. company, for a firm fixed price requirements contract spanning up to seven ordering years for the Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) A2 variant.

The future generation FMTV A2 to be provided by Oshkosh will be comprised of 16 models and associated trailers capable of carrying payloads ranging from 3-ton to 10-ton, and performing a wide range of duties from supporting combat missions, to relief efforts, to logistics and supply operations.

The initial estimated contract value is $476 million with no cap on the number of vehicles the Army may purchase. Oshkosh Defense submitted the FMTV A2 proposal in response to the U.S. Army’s competitive request for proposal (RFP) that required bidders to validate and produce an upgraded FMTV A2 fleet of vehicles with improved payload, underbody protection, ride quality, mobility, engine power, electronics, diagnostics, and safety enhancements.
